A WONDERFUL Movie!



I don't recommend many movies here, but this one was marvelous! The perfect movie for a chick flick night, or for an evening when your hubby is gone (unless he enjoys these kind of films)! This movie is clean and captivating and so enjoyable. If you're a fan of Pride and Prejudice, or similar movies, you will LOVE





Wives and Daughters




My Aunt Suzee loaned it to me (it's her daughter's favorite) and it was such a treat. But don't make the mistake of starting it too late. It's a five hour movie and I just couldn't go to bed in the middle of it!





If I could sum it up in two phrases I would say, "A study in human nature" and "an incredible love story."





So, check it out! It's probably not available at most rental stores but you may find it in the library or be able to buy it used online! Sure to be a favorite for years to come and something mothers and daughters, especially, can enjoy watching together.

Have any of you seen it?

A Must-See Movie

I apologize to those of you who saw this movie months ago in the theatre! Cut me some slack since I live in Hickville and it never came to our town and so I was excited to watch it this week when it came out on DVD.

Amazing Grace.

Wow, what a movie! I love seeing a quality film that teaches a lesson and glorifies God! I was so inspired by the story of William Wilberforce, which I'm sure I studied in High School but hadn't remembered. The main lessons I take with me from this film:

*Following God down a hard path that involves suffering for His sake.

*Standing up for righteousness even when you are alone.

*Fighting injustice with everything that's in you and not growing complacent.

*Perseverance.

*God can and will use young people to fulfill seemingly impossible tasks.

*The influence an excellent woman can have on her husband. The joy of supporting one's husband in great endeavors.

*The power of God to save depraved and sinful men.

*The responsibility that comes with knowledge.

*A model for us today of a zealous man of God who was used of God to change his world.
